So at the recommendation of Sarah Hoyt, I read Cry Bullies: Protecting yourself against social muggers and victimhood aggression and it was worth the time. It is a short read from a few years ago that packs a lot of information that is still relevant in dealing with the current lot of Karens, SJWs and beta males who think they run the show. They don’t. This book teaches you how to fight back by understanding the mindset of the social harasser and how to put a stop to their nonsense. The right tools and the will to fight back is the only way to deal with our current political climate. Better arm yourself. (Bumped)

PLEASE SUPPORT HELEN’S PAGE ADVERTISERS: Korving & Company, author of Before I Go and Before I Go Workbook; The Hard Man Novels and Greek Biblical T-shirts.
UPDATE: Reader Taleena emails a good review for the Biblical Greek coffee mugs: I purchased some large size coffee mugs from BiblicalGreekTshirt.com for the ladies in my Bible study group. …What a joy to receive these high quality mugs, with the Greek we are studying on one side and our favorite verses on the other! I was impressed that we could choose whatever New Testament Verse we wanted, rather than the “greatest hits” typically found on Christian items. The company communicated during the entire creation and shipping process, delivered on time in a well packaged shipping box. I highly endorse this company, and was very pleased to have found them through Instapundit. (Bumped)

“MOST OF THE WORLD’S WORK IS DONE BY PEOPLE WHO DON’T FEEL VERY WELL.” I thought of Churchill’s saying as I started reading Jordan Peterson’s new book Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life this week. After reading the introduction, I really wondered how people make it through so many health crises. His wife almost died, his daughter is sick and Peterson wakes up in intensive care in Moscow of all places. I think ill health gives people a lot more insight and understanding of life, but I think most of us would trade that for feeling well. That said, the book seems good so far, and is more personal and heartfelt than the first. Give it a try if you like Peterson’s work. (Bumped)

HELEN TRIED IT: There is a book listed at Helen’s Page that I read a while back called Before I Go: Preparing Your Affairs for Your Heirs. I have it sitting on one of my bookshelves and have used it from time to time to help me update a list of important information in case someone in my family needs it. It is not a very uplifting topic but the book is really good at helping you organize your financial and important documents to help your family in case you become sick or die. Though I don’t recommend the topic, I do think the book is worth a read if you ever wondered what kinds of things like bills, insurance, finances etc. your family needs to know about if something does happen to you. (Bumped)
UPDATE: For those of you who are interested, there is also an accompanying workbook called Before I Go Workbook. (Bumped)

NO MAN IS SAFE: There is a new book coming out soon by actor and director Greg Ellis called The Respondent: Exposing the Cartel of Family Law. There is an introduction by Johnny Depp who says about the book: “If you’re trapped in the dungeon that is the family court system, The Respondent should be your constant companion.” I need to read this.

GLENN TRIES IT: So I bought Glenn a bottle of the men’s shaving soap from Old Post Road Oils that has a listing at Helen’s Page. It showed up by USPS a few days later and I gave it to him. He read the instructions, used it for a few days and pronounced it “the best shave I have ever had.” His face is smooth and the soap smells amazing. It comes in Sandalwood and Bay Rum which sounds awesome too. The soap had been sold out thanks to all of you buying it but is now back in stock and you can also get the men’s set which comes with the soap and shaving oil together. The shaving oil will probably be my next purchase for Glenn.
UPDATE: The Bay Rum shaving soap now in stock here. (Bumped)
